| Category | Treatment of Pyorrhea |
Pyorrhea is the leading cause of adult dental damage. It is a bacterial infection that affects the gum tissues and sometimes leads to the eventual loss of teeth if left untreated. The signs include gum bleeding and bad breath. It's a painless illness because most people choose not to go for surgery, rather than a lengthy and expensive surgical treatment. But what they don't know is that if pyorrhea reaches a serious stage then it may result in teeth loss.
